The first thousand six hundred and sixty-eight chapters choose the road
Everyone looked around, and sure enough they found that at the edge of the straight road, the leaves on the plants were hanging down sickly, and there was still some yellowish liquid left, which was very sticky and had a faint fishy smell.
Come on.
There are also traces of animals crawling on the ground, but it is difficult to find them without looking carefully.
Then a disciple in blue seemed to have discovered something. He opened the bushes on the roadside and picked up a piece of animal carapace. It was red in color and tied hard, like a piece of iron. He tapped it with his fingers and made a clanging sound.
.
"This is the carapace of a red iron centipede."
After the man in blue looked at it carefully, he seemed to have thought of something. He was startled and said in a low voice.
"Throw away the carapace."
When the others heard this, their expressions also changed. The man who was relatively calm when asking Wang Teng for directions also said in a deep voice.
In fact, after the man in blue revealed the origin of the carapace, he dropped the carapace of the red iron centipede like a snake.
The red iron centipede is a very rare beast, a mutant of the centipede. It contains highly toxic substances in its body. It likes to hide in fallen leaves or under the ground, waiting for prey to pass by, then suddenly jumps out, poisons the prey to death, and then chews it.
Food.
However, the average red iron centipede, when it grows to adulthood, is only three or four meters in length at most, and its strength is at the peak level of the fifth-level space beast. But judging from the carapace that fell off the body, the size of this red iron centipede is
It is at least ten meters tall. It is a relatively rare mutated red iron centipede. Its strength is at least level six, or even stronger.
In addition, the red iron centipede also has a habit of almost always showing a male and a female at the same time. In other words, there are very likely two mutant red iron centipedes on this road.
The combined strength of the two red iron centipedes, which were at least level six space beasts, was much more powerful than the black-scaled giant snake they encountered before. Even Gongsun Tianyu would not be able to deal with them.
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. This straight road was indeed impossible to walk.
"Junior brother Wang Teng's analysis is so good, it's really admirable."
The man who asked for directions earlier raised his hand and smiled.
He looks to be almost thirty years old, has a straight face and is relatively calm. His name is "Mu Qing". He is also a disciple of Qinglang, and ranks seventh among the disciples of Qinglang. This time, because he is also going to enter the Luoxia Mountains, it happens that
He met Gongsun Tianyu and Gongsun Tianyu invited him, so he joined the team. In terms of friendship, he and Gongsun Tianyu were not very close.
As he spoke, his eyes looked at Wang Teng, showing a hint of admiration. With just a casual glance, he could see the clues on this road. He was really impressed by the sharp eyesight of the junior brother in front of him.
.
Some other team members couldn't help but look at Gongsun Tianyu strangely.
Even if they have beast-repelling medicine on them, there is no guarantee that the weird poison will be effective against the red iron centipede. If there is an accident and they encounter a mutated red iron centipede, it will be terrible.
As if he understood everyone's thoughts, Gongsun Tianyu couldn't help but twitched his face, and his expression became a little ugly. He was the third most dignified Qinglang disciple, but was actually outclassed by a new disciple, which made him a little angry.
At that moment, he glanced at the curved road and couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth: "Then how do you know that there are no wild animals on that curved road."
"Almost there are wild animals on the trails in the mountains and forests, but compared to the straight road, this curved road appears to be much cleaner, and the safety factor is naturally much higher."
Wang Teng glanced at the bend and said calmly, then glanced at everyone and said, "That's it for now. You can consider it yourself whether you believe it or not."
After saying that, Wang Teng walked towards the winding road without hesitation at all.
Gongsun Fang glanced at Wang Teng's back with his wonderful eyes, and then at Gongsun Tianyu, who looked gloomy. After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head slightly, faced Wang Teng's back, and took steps to catch up.
The remaining people looked at each other, Mu Qing's face darkened, and said: "Let's go, let's follow Junior Brother Wang Teng!"
Everyone noticed Gongsun Tianyu's mediocre performance just now. Wang Teng's jungle experience was obviously much richer than Gongsun Tianyu's. As long as he was not stupid, he would naturally choose to believe Wang Teng.
As for Mu Qing, who was ranked third among Qinglang disciples and was also a very prestigious person, after hearing his words, those people seemed to have found a backbone and followed him, leaving only Gongsun Tianyu, Gongsun Mingzhu and a few other Gongsuns.
The elders of the family stood there with ugly faces, very embarrassed.
"Brother Tianyu, what should we do now?"
Seeing those people leaving Wang Teng one after another, Gongsun Mingzhu moved his lips, and asked Gongsun Tianyu helplessly.
Generally red iron centipedes like to hide the most. Since they appear on a straight road, they may not have gone very far. If they take this straight road, they will indeed be trapped in the tiger's mouth.
"You bastard, what else can I do? Of course I just go with him."
Gongsun Tianyu was obviously angry. As the leader of the team, Wang Teng rode up on him, and there was anger burning in his heart.
Hearing Gongsun Mingzhu's words, he couldn't help but shouted angrily, and then swung his sleeves and robe fiercely, and followed Wang Teng and others... Gongsun Mingzhu could only smile bitterly, thinking that he was unlucky and had become the opponent's punching bag.
, then he also drove his mount and followed Gongsun Tianyu somewhat dejectedly.
As for the elders of the Gongsun family, seeing them all leaving, they also followed them.
However, Wang Teng, who was originally ridiculed and ridiculed, now seems to have become the core of the team, making each of them feel a little slapped in the face.
...On the winding road, there are towering mountains on both sides, towering ancient trees, and old vines like dragons. The scenery is very primitive.
Even in the distant mountains and forests, there were occasionally sounds of extremely ferocious roars, causing thousands of trees to sway and their leaves to wither, giving off a very ferocious and terrifying smell.
Wang Teng led a group of people and walked leisurely on this road.
The paths in the mountains and forests are all naturally formed. No one knows where they lead. It will be much easier to walk on them.
Sure enough, on the road pointed by Wang Teng, everyone did not encounter any danger, not even a poisonous insect or ant appeared.
This made everyone marvel. In the past, they had experienced the Luoxia Mountains, but it had never been so smooth. Walking with Wang Teng, it seemed that there was a mysterious power that allowed them to avoid those ferocious birds and beasts.
Each of them had a sense of admiration for Wang Teng.
Gongsunfang looked at the tall young man in front of him with his wonderful eyes. His deep and heroic eyes were scanning the surroundings, paying attention to any disturbance on the road at any time. He looked alert and serious, and a sense of security could not help but appear in his heart.
